Thats because they're garbage.

Not saying the Panamera isn't ugly, but I'm just not seeing the resemblance.

Those are called "Kei Cars" and they are plentiful because they have a different tax and regulation status in Japan.

Mitsubishi Outlander. Every year Mitsubishi seems to screw up their brand's styling for yet another ugly motif. They had one good design with the Lancer Evolution VII and 2nd gen Outlander but they have been gross looking since.



The upcoming Honda HR-V is pretty nasty looking.

Uhh manual transmission is the default on:
A5
S5
A4 quattro
S4
All R8 models

The only glaring omission is the TT, which of course has S tronic which far outperforms a manual anyway, and any of the others are not bought by people who drive manuals in North America so there's no point.

I'd like to particularly single out the MKT.

Does this not look like a hearse?

Spoiler!

The S3 will not be offered with a manual. If there was ever a car to have in a manual, it will be their smallest sports sedan. The trend doesn't look good... no more good wagons. Manuals disappearing...

There's also the "Asian" Jeep Cherokee



Really wonder about the line of sight/vision of those tiny headlight slits.


...wait it has another set of lights underneath those slits...are those the actual headlights then (with fog lights underneath that)?

I don't mind the new design.

Infiniti FX50.



Looks like a car with a big clown nose to me.

I have a serious grudge against General Motors that goes back 25 years, but I think the GMC Terrain is a truly fugly thing.


I still can't understand for the life of me why they build GMC trucks, and Chevy Trucks. It would be like Ford bringing Mercury back just to build another line of Trucks....which they were doing and realized was dumb and sure to lead them to need government handouts to keep them afloat.

Please die off GM...please die.

He's just mad because I told him to buzz off.

The Ford Focus is a nice looking car, and I'm not just saying that because I have one. It's a pretty good-looking vehicle, especially since it's a modified design job from the newer Fusion style, which is pretty nice itself.

However, for ugly cars, nothing comes close to the Pontiac Aztec.

I am picking up what you're putting down but there seem to still be enough of them in my way that it is a problem that I still notice. It used to be a bigger problem 4 year ago. Damn toyotas don't quit!

You must also not work anywhere near NE Calgary.

LOL! I call those the angry asian Jeeps too.

I'm just going to add a vote for the Ford Flex. The side panels just remind me of vinyl siding on a house.
